    Foreign media, January 16 news: The International Grains Council (IGC) released its first forecast for 2022/23 production in its January report, predicting that global wheat production in 2022/23 will increase for the fourth consecutive year and hit a record high.
    All-time highs, but that's still not enough to support rebuilding inventories
    .
     
    The IGC estimates that wheat production in 2022/23 will reach another record high, continuing the trend of growth from 733 million tons in 2018/19 to 781 million tons in 2021/22
    .
     
    On the same day French analyst firm Strategic Grains forecast global wheat production in 2022/23 to rise by 24.
    3 million tonnes year-on-year, as Canadian and U.
    S.
    wheat production recovers from last year's drought
    .
     
    The IGC said, however, that wheat stocks were little changed despite an expected increase in production
    .
    In fact, wheat ending stocks have been hovering around 276 million tons since 2019/20
    .
     
      Global inventories are little changed year-on-year as global wheat consumption is also set to hit a new high, the IGC said
    .
     
      In addition, stocks in major wheat exporters are expected to remain below average
    .
    In 2021/22, wheat ending stocks in major global project exporters stood at 54 million tonnes, down from 69 million three years ago
    .
     
      Strategic Grains also expects global wheat inventories to increase only marginally in 2022/23, up 4.
    1 million tons from the previous year to 234.
    2 million
    .
    Although production is expected to rise, this is almost offset by growth in feed and industrial consumption
    .
     
      In terms of the key stock-to-use ratio, supply has actually tightened, from 31.
    1% in 2021/22 to 30.
    9%
    .
    But wheat prices are still set to fall due to a modest increase in wheat supplies from major exporters
    .
     
      Strategic Grains expects average milling wheat prices to fall to $260 to $270 per ton in 2022/23 (depending on origin), down about $50 per ton from 2021/22 and $25 to $35 from current prices
